Angarak Yog is a strong planetary combination in Vedic astrology. It happens when Mars (Mangal) and Rahu sit together in the same house of a birth chart. This creates very intense energy, which can affect your thoughts, actions, relationships, career and peace of mind.​

Many people with Angarak Yog face sudden anger, impatience, repeated problems or unexpected setbacks in life. This does not mean their life is spoiled. When you understand this yog properly, it becomes much easier to handle it.

In this article, you will learn:

• What Angarak Yog means

• How it is formed in a horoscope

• How it can affect different areas of life

• When it becomes strong or mild

• Which remedies can help

What is Angarak Yog in Astrology?

Angarak Yog is formed when Mars and Rahu are together in the same house of your birth chart.​

Mars stands for:

• Energy

• Action

• Courage

• Anger

Rahu stands for:

• Confusion

• Obsession

• Sudden events

• Strong desires

When these two planets join, a person may feel more restless, short‑tempered and reactive. The fire of Mars and the intensity of Rahu combine and can create inner tension.

How is Angarak Yog Formed in a Birth Chart?

Usually, Astrologers say Angarak Yog is present when:

• Mars and Rahu are in the same zodiac sign

• They are close in degrees

• They influence the same house

This yog can be in any house of the horoscope. Its results change according to where it is placed and which other planets are connected to it.​

Effects of Angarak Yog on Life

On emotions and mind

• Sudden anger or outbursts

• Mood swings

• Irritation and frustration

• Feeling uneasy or restless

• Thinking too much and not feeling calm

When the mind becomes overheated or restless, sometimes the body also starts giving signals – like a faster heartbeat, shaking of hands or frequent blinking of eyes. When Angarak Yoga is strong, some people also notice body signs like left eye blinking for male or sometimes right eye blinking for males, whose detailed astrological meanings have been explained in separate articles.

On career and work

• Arguments at the workplace

• Sudden changes in job or role

• Clashes with bosses or seniors

• Quick, risky decisions in career

• Feeling unhappy or stuck in work life​

On relationships

• Fights or heated arguments

• Ego issues and hurt feelings

• Trust problems

• Misunderstandings

• Emotional distance from close people

On health

• Stress and tension

• Disturbed sleep

• Headaches

• Issues related to blood pressure

When is Angarak Yog Strong or Mild?

Angarak Yog does not give the same result in every chart.

It is usually stronger when:

• Mars and Rahu are very close in degrees

• They sit in difficult houses like the 6th, 8th or 12th

• Other malefic planets also disturb that house​

It feels milder when:

• Benefic planets like Jupiter give support

• Mars is strong and well placed

• There are other good yogas which balance the chart​

Because of this, one person may feel Angarak Yog very strongly, while another person with the same combination may feel it in a softer way. A proper personal reading is needed to know this clearly.

Remedies for Angarak Yog That Can Help

Remedies should always be personal, but some simple things usually help to calm this energy:​

• Reading or listening to Hanuman Chalisa regularly

• Working on anger control and reacting slowly

• Doing meditation, pranayama or deep breathing daily

• Helping people in need and doing seva

• Avoiding decisions taken in anger or fear

If Angarak Yog is very strong in your chart, then gemstone, puja or specific mantra should only be taken after proper janam kundli analysis.​

Should You Be Scared If You Have Angarak Yog?

No.

Angarak Yog can also give courage, strong willpower and the ability to fight challenges. Many people with this yog become very bold and successful when they learn to channel this energy in the right direction.​

The same fire that creates anger can also become passion, focus and leadership if handled wisely.
